Yeah, but it's the M23, coupled with the horrible corner of the M25.
I've heard from a friend, who is a GAK regular and lives just outside Brighton, that the sale/closure is for 'personal reasons'. Of course, those reasons may be debt related.
€252 + shipping and local taxes gets you a Maruszczyk leather gigbag, less (€226) if you go for black.

No, it’s true, there’s nothing and it’s been nothing for quite some time - it sucks.
I know that a new band, with particular sonic/aesthetic requirements could cure this, but it’s slim pickings.
